Before opening the doors or signing a lease. Create your menu and have potential customers, friends and family comment on your dishes. Calculate the pricing for your dishes. Determine who will be partners in the business and your roles in the business and why. Go get restaurant jobs to see if you like it. Search for restaurants that will be similar, such as fast food vs full service dining. Sit down look to work at an Outback Steakhouse or Carrabba's. Fast food look at Chipolte's. Read the "E-Myth" and for any TV you should be watching is cooking shows and "Kitchen Nightmares". Restaurant has a very, very high failure rate. Most banks won't touch restaurants. People think it's as easy as just cooking food. Good luck.
